  • Details of Legal Eagle I-43
    At 237.5#, it is generally agreed among the Legal Eagle higherups that I-43 is the lightest weight, highest performance 4 stroke Legal Eagle in the world. 765 FPM ROC average conditions on a still tight motor running too much prop for optimum climb.
    Please excuse all the hacking and sniffing.Yeah, I know, pretty gross.
    The designer considers jury struts mandatory.

    You know you got yo' sheet together when you use mountain bike brakes on your plane and they work. Never would've thought of that in a million years...Living the American Dream...Living the Dream of a lotta guys......Great work and keep the vids coming....

    Love it man! Been flying ultralights since '78. I'm a retired professional pilot and I can say that there's nothing better than low 'n slow in an ultralight or LSA aircraft. Thank you for a great video!

    If If I am not mistaken those brakes are avid BB7s . They are a great quality cable mountain bike brake I have them on my bicycle and will be putting them on my double eagle when it is completed! Thanks Joe for showing that confidence in ones abilities and ingenuity is what flying can be about!

    Has anyone ever tried this in a bi-wing version that you know of? I am building from scratch and no plans but the legal eagle is extremely close to what I'm trying to do. The only difference being that I've decided to try to make a biplane version of the style. I can't seem to find any biplane versions of the Legal Eagle, but for that matter, I cant even seem to find one that has had its whole fuselage covered?? Why is this? I would think the drag you could get rid of would be more benefit than the weight savings you get by leaving it open. Someone set me straight on that because I'm thinking the fact that I cant find a single enclosed one means I must be wrong..? One last difference on mine is that I'll be trying a Honda GX670 instead of the VW. I'm actually a longtime VW hobbyist but I just happen to have the Honda engine fall in my lap and with some diff carbs and cam, and stripping it down for weight, I'm banking on being able to get 35hp out of it and it weighing apprx 70lbs. Sorry about writing a book.. I'm done now. haha
